One reason I support runoff versus other reform methods is I don't believe it to be a major enough change to need authority of the people to implement unlike the proposed changes in Ontario and BC that were major enough to need votes. That being said, the UK held a vote on implementing IRV, but I don't think that was necessary.

How do you prevent a Stelmach situation where a candidate without a significant portion of the first choice votes wins?
I would think you'd have to take the top two first choices, then redistribute everyone else's votes
